Heading 3925 — Plastics; builders' wares n.e.c. or included
Chapter 39: Plastics and articles thereof
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 392530 when importing or exporting plastic shutters, blinds, and similar articles made from plastic. For example, this code applies to a shipment of plastic Venetian blinds packaged in bulk for a home improvement store.
This code specifically covers builders' ware made of plastic, such as window shutters and blinds, which are essential for both residential and commercial properties. In contrast, HS-6 392540 includes plastic articles for construction that do not fall under shutters or blinds.
When classifying products, consider that 392530 is distinct from HS-6 392590, which covers other plastic articles not specifically listed. If your product is a plastic screen or shade that doesn’t fit the shutter or blind category, you may need to look at that code instead.
Be mindful of the materials used; if your product includes metal components, it may require a different classification. Always verify the composition to ensure proper HS code application.
